Film Independent Members, you and a guest are invited to join us for a theatrical screening* of Nanny, followed by an in-person conversation with writer/director and Film Independent Fellow Nikyatu Jusu and actor Sinqua Walls, moderated by journalist Gregory Ellwood.

* Masks are recommended for attendees, but not required.

In this psychological horror fable of displacement, Aisha (Anna Diop), a woman who recently emigrated from Senegal, is hired to care for the daughter of an affluent couple (Michelle Monaghan and Morgan Spector) living in New York City. Haunted by the absence of the young son she left behind, Aisha hopes her new job will afford her the chance to bring him to the U.S., but becomes increasingly unsettled by the family’s volatile home life. As his arrival approaches, a violent presence begins to invade both her dreams and her reality, threatening the American dream she is painstakingly piecing together.

From Amazon Studios, Nanny will be in theaters November 23rd and on Prime Video globally December 16th.
